I'm using the stock 'iw' command that comes with Fedora 13. As far as I can tell, the results of 'iw reg get' are funky: [root@atom lanforge]# iw reg get country 98: (2402 - 2472 @ 40), (N/A, 20) (5170 - 5250 @ 20), (N/A, 17) (5250 - 5330 @ 20), (N/A, 18), DFS What is '98'? It doesn't correspond to anything I can find in the numeric or ascii lists of country codes. Also, setting the domain doesn't seem to do anything, although there are no errors: [root@atom lanforge]# iw reg get country 98: (2402 - 2472 @ 40), (N/A, 20) (5170 - 5250 @ 20), (N/A, 17) (5250 - 5330 @ 20), (N/A, 18), DFS [root@atom lanforge]# iw reg set US [root@atom lanforge]# iw reg get country 98: (2402 - 2472 @ 40), (N/A, 20) (5170 - 5250 @ 20), (N/A, 17) (5250 - 5330 @ 20), (N/A, 18), DFS Anyone know if this is *supposed* to work?
